Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Lancaster address and unloads right where you point.
A load of crushed concrete means recycled material that compacts hard and stays put. You buy it by the ton, online, and Gravel Monkey brings the truck to your address. Lancaster gets about 45 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for any surface that uses a base layer.
Choose the size that fits your job, place the order, and pick a delivery window. The price shows up at checkout based on your ZIP code.
Not every size works for every application. Some are too small for base work, some too coarse for a finished surface. Here are the options.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A mix of sizes, good for compacted fills and temporary surfaces. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Small enough to rake smooth for paths and light-duty areas. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Packs into a firm layer under pavers, slabs or drives. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Chunky enough to spread load over soft ground. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Large pieces bridge over wet spots and add bulk quickly. |
The table below matches common jobs to the best size and a suggested depth.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches deep over fabric, spreads load on soft ground. |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches compacted, then surface gravel on top. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Fill in lifts, compact each 6-inch layer. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 inches compacted, cap with finer material if needed. |
| Backfill behind a wall | Crushed Concrete (mixed sizes) | Drains well, place and compact in 6-inch lifts. |
Lancaster gets about 70 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means you want firm ground for the delivery truck, so schedule around dry stretches. Snowfall here is essentially 0 inches per year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a concern.
Soils mapped in the Lancaster area are commonly well drained, which reduces the amount of base stone needed under the surface layer. The ground around Lancaster takes water in at a moderate rate, so a standard base depth is usually enough. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Estimate tonnage by multiplying the area by the planned depth and using the material's density. The material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site do that math for you in seconds.

About 70 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means roughly one in five days has measurable precipitation. Schedule the delivery onto firm ground and avoid extended wet spells when the base cannot be compacted properly.
Ground freezing here is not a significant factor. Only about 57 days a year drop below 32F, and the frost does not penetrate deep enough to affect base work. You can order crushed concrete most of the year without worrying about frozen ground.
The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. If access is restricted, the crew unloads as close to the requested spot as they safely can. Confirm your property can take the weight of a loaded dump truck.
Depth depends on use: 4 to 6 inches for a driveway base, 6 to 8 inches for heavy traffic or soft ground. Use the material calculators to convert depth into tonnage for your area. Gravel Monkey includes a recommended depth range on the product pages.
